On Friday, 7 October, the Council for the Judiciary decided in written proceedings to transfer
Indra Meldere, a judge of the Administrative Regional Court, to the Supreme Court
as a senator of the Administrative Cases Department.
Until now, Judge Indra Meldere worked at the Administrative Regional Court. From 2008 to
2011, she worked at the Administrative District Court.
Additional information:
The Council for the Judiciary makes a decision when a candidate for the position of Supreme Court judge is nominated
who has already been approved by the Saeima as a judge in a lower-instance court. However, if a candidate
who is not a judge is nominated for the position of Supreme Court judge, the Saeima approves them for the position of judge
without limiting the term of office.
